The name comes from the Zika forest in Uganda where in 1947 researchers into Yellow Fever infected a rhesus macaque with the fever. They isolated a transmissible substance in 1952, called the Zika virus, and took substance from the first infected human of Nigeria in 1954. From then until 2007 cases of it were rare in Africa and Asia until a major outbreak occurred on Yap island, Micronesia. Since then it has been found in Polynesia, Easter Island, the Cook Islands and New Caledonia.
The question is who created the virus and is responsible for its spread? Obviously the monkey must have passed on the infection through mosquitoes in its area and to others in its pack. Then it passed to humans while the scientists may have allowed the substance they created to pass into the environment.
It doesn't matter how it came to be or why the facts are we have it and now it is set to play havoc on human health. In the intervening 62 years it has travelled from Africa and Asia to Brazil and now to neighbouring countries like Venezuela, Argentina, and so on. In 2015 this larger outbreak in Brazil is linked to the staging of the FIFA World Cup in 2014.
The facts are that humans are subject to something beyond their control. It is my opinion that we are in the last days when life on earth will almost disappear and only a few will survive. This is not based on speculation but on memory of my reincarnation and knowledge given to me by the Spirit of the Universe, the real God.
It is this entity that controls all things and it is in all of space. Look up and see the zillions upon zillions of stars and planets to get an idea of its size. It can also speak to us and put in our minds the things it requires to happen, such as creating this virus. With its spread devastation on a massive scale will follow as it causes microcephaly in infants and that may lead to another greater disaster.
The virus is also known to stay in the semen and to be transmitted to women, as noted by officials at the Dallas County Health and Human Services and confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on February 2nd.
If this is the scenario we are faced with there is little we can do about it. The Olympic Games will go ahead as planned and the virus will spread because, as noted in prophecy, we are caught in a trap (Jeremiah 11:11,12) from which there is no escape.

I've been searching for alternatives (alternatives to prescribed drugs, to foods, to attitude) for a very long time. A couple of decades are a long time to feel generally awful; without vibrancy, without satisfactory energy, without a clear head. People who don't know me very well or haven't known me very long are surprised to hear this. To them, I appear high energy; I move quickly, speak fast, and can be very reactive. I accomplish a great deal.
I know I could accomplish so much more if given the energy, stamina, and vitality to combine with the enthusiasm for life that I have.
In my search for more, I learned some incredible facts about autoimmunity. According to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, (NIAID) there are more than 80 diseases or disorders attributed to an autoimmune condition. The NIAID maintains the study of autoimmunity is a priority for their organization.
At the turn of the 20th Century - it is estimated that about 1 in 10,000 individuals had an autoimmune disorder. Today, that number is 1 in 250! That's an extraordinary increase in 116 years. In addition to Hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone) and Hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormone) here are some other familiar names of diseases I didn't realize were considered "autoimmune:"
• Parkinson's Disease
• Dementia
• Colitis
• Arthritis
• Irritable bowel syndrome
• Addison's Disease
• Autoimmune hepatitis
• Celiac Disease
• Chronic Lyme's disease
• Restless Legs
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
The list goes on and on.
From what I've learned, inflammation is at the heart of autoimmunity. Inflammation is said to begin in the gut. The gut has a semi-permeable lining whose degree of permeability fluctuates in response to an enormous number of conditions. The result of repeated stretching of this lining is what's known as "leaky gut syndrome."
Leaky gut means partially undigested foods, viruses, bacteria and toxins flow freely into our bloodstream, ultimately leading to inflammation and a severe lack of nutrient absorption. During one of my numerous searches for ways to feel better, I began taking a large number and variety of vitamins. After a while (and a whole lot of money) I learned I probably had a leaky gut. Translation: all the vitamins I was consuming resulted in "expensive urine" and little else.
As of this writing, I'm awaiting lab results. Last week I asked my doctor to order the following 6 labs (vs. the standard 3 typically ordered) so I could find out more about my autoimmune condition:
• TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone)
• Thyroid Peroxidase Thyroid Antibodies (TPO)
• Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TG Antibodies)
• Free T3
• Free T4
• Reverse T3
Some experts also suggest a thyroid ultrasound and I might also request this if I don't obtain sufficient information and direction. There is a ton of information and a huge number of authorities on autoimmune diseases and disorders. The main takeaway I can share from all of my studies is this:
Each of us is responsible for our own health. It is your responsibility to ask the doctors to explain, ask the pharmacist to help you understand your medications, and most of all, gauge your progress. I should have acted long before now to be proactive about my own health. I encourage everyone to do the same.

(By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Leah_Barker/2347652]Leah Barker)
Often times when I talk about advancing into the later stages of Huntington's Disease, people (for a reason I will never know) think that it is comforting to tell me that I might die by getting ran over a bus, or inheriting breast cancer, or tripping on a rock and cracking my head open. They tell me this to say, "Hey, you never know what the future might bring. You might die from something else before you even progress in the disease!"
Okay... what? Almost every person that I confide in tells me things like this. Let me be the first to say that it is not comforting at all. The fact is, I know that I have HD; I know that my brain is degenerating and that someday, it will destroy my mind and my body.
I may look like I'm 23, but in reality, I'm 52.
On a timeline, that is. My clock is ticking faster than yours, whether you want to believe it or not. I don't have a potential long-life span. This is it. It's inevitable. And I'm okay (for the most part).
What most people don't understand or refuse to believe is that I am sick now. With a CAG of 43, I didn't think that my symptoms would start showing until my 40's, but after doing some research, I found that most people with a CAG of 43 begin to endure emotional problems within their 20's.
This is where my depression, anxiety, paranoia, and mild OCD come in. It's so hard to deal with it all, especially when people believe that it's "all in my head." I am speaking for all the other HD victims who are waging the same war. And it is, indeed, a blood-shedding battle that we fight every day, while everyone else goes about their routine business.
On the days that I cannot get out of bed and I have to keep the curtains shut, I am not being lazy. I am fighting the demons in my head that tell me that dying would be better than progressing, and let me tell you, I cannot imagine this mental degradation getting worse, but it has to.
When I don't answer my phone calls or talk to my friends when they want to hang out, it is not because I'm being anti-social. It is because I have days when I'm afraid of crowds or going outside. I'm afraid of the sunlight because it reminds me of a happiness that is slipping further from my grip every day. I'm almost always afraid of something, but it's just that word: something. I don't know what it is or when it will hit. It comes and goes as it pleases, and it steals every ounce of will and inspiration that I cling so desperately to on the good days.
I know there are others who are going through the same thing, and I'm so thankful for the fellow victims who take my hand and suffer with me.
I just want to announce that this is a disease, not a choice. I can only control so much, and it kills me.
My brain is like a big jigsaw puzzle that loses more pieces as the clock keeps ticking. Sometimes, on rare occasions, I think that the puzzle might be complete, but the euphoria only lasts for so long, and then the pieces become lost again.
But I'm going to embrace it. The manic depression, anxiety, paranoia, bipolar disorder, and slight schizophrenia-they are all a part of me, and though they may appear as enemies, I like to call them my friends when they allow me to relate to others who are wading through similar waters.
So, I am going to call them my friends for as long as I have the will, and I plan on having the will for a long, long time. Maybe until my very last breath. Only time will tell.

(Cord Blood Stem Cells Show Promise for Alzheimer's Patients
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Richa_Verma/2314151]Richa Verma)
Alzheimer's disease affects almost 4 million Indians and is predicted to triple its numbers by 2050. A disease that impacts basic cerebral functions like memory and thinking skills, it is irreparable and currently has no cure or treatment available. Latest scientific developments involve the encouraging promise of the restorative usage of cord blood stem cells in curing this progressive brain disease.
Neuroscientists from the University of South Florida, USA led by Dr. Jun Tan, MD, PhD, Robert A. Silver Chair and Director of the Rashid Laboratory for Developmental Neurobiology at the Silver Child Development Centre, USF Department of Psychiatry have been bestowed a federal grant of USD 1.5 million in order to assess a new methodology of treatment in a mouse model for Alzheimer's disease using human umbilical cord blood cells (HUCBC) for a period of 5 years by National Institute on Aging. In a mouse model, investigative studies by this team of researchers have demonstrated that immunity can be transmitted using human umbilical cord blood cells, which betters the pathology connected with Alzheimer's disease. Alternatively, additional research work has shown that a particular immune system repression is associated with notably diminished anomalous concentrations of the beta amyloid protein related to Alzheimer's disease.
"This new NIH study will continue to build on our understanding of the HUCBC's mechanism behind improvement in Alzheimer's disease," Dr. Tan said. "It will help provide a better understanding of brain immune cells called microglia, which promote brain inflammation in Alzheimer's disease."
Dr. Tan and his research team comprising of Paul Sanberg, PhD, DSc, Director of the Centre of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair, Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, and David Morgan, PhD, professor in the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology and chief scientific officer of the Byrd Alzheimer Institute at USF Health revealed that certain molecule, CD40 on the exterior of these microglia cells is triggered by its partner, CD40L (CD40 ligand) that prompts a series of cascading events that eventually leads to brain inflammation potentially causing injury to the brain's neurons. However, these eventualities resulting in damaging the immune response system could be obstructed by particular antibodies.
In order to reduce the Alzheimer's pathology in the brain, Dr. Tan and his team proposed to examine the prognosis that human umbilical cord blood cells has the potential to diminish the interaction between the CD40L molecule and its CD40 target. A mouse model trial will be executed with genetically altered memory problems imitating Alzheimer's disease as they age.
Moreover, the research team believes that by generating a cocktail amalgamation of the specific molecules would be the fundamental reasons behind the favourable outcomes of the human umbilical cord blood cells in demonstrating its possibility in treating Alzheimer's.
"We will give the compound to these transgenic mice to assess the possibility of bypassing the need for HUCBC and making future therapies more cost effective," Dr. Tan said. "This approach shifts the focus from treating symptoms of Alzheimer's disease to treatments that slow down the disease or prevent it altogether." Dr. Tan said. "Our long-term goal is to move this combination treatment into phase I human trials for patients with mild to moderate this disease."

(Bone Diseases and Treatment Process
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Prachi_Tyagi/2016770]Prachi Tyagi)
Bone disease known as "osteopathy" the term osteopathy is commonly used to refer to another healthcare philosophy. the bones support the body move, shape and help your body. the Living tissues that rebuild constantly throughout your life. During childhood to your teens, the body adds new bone faster than it removes aged bone. After on age 20, you can drop bone faster than you build bone. To have muscular bones when you are young, and to stop bone loss when you are older.
Need to get sufficient vitamin D, calcium and exercise. You should also keep away from drinking too much alcohol and smoking.
Let's start here telling about types of bone diseases:
Osteoporosis- A medical situation in which the bones develop into fragile and Delicate from loss of tissue, typically as a result of hormonal changes, or deficiency of calcium or vitamin D
Osteogenesis imperfecta - An inherited disorder characterized by rearward fragility of the bones
Rickets - A disease of children caused by vitamin D deficiency, characterized by imperfect calcification, softening, and distortion of the bones typically resulting in bow legs.
Fracture of bone- Fracture, in pathology, a break in a bone caused by stress. Certain normal and pathological conditions may predispose the bone to fracture. Children have relatively weak bones due to incomplete calcification, and older adults, especially women past menopause develop osteoporosis, a weakening of concomitant bone with aging.
Osteomyelitis- Infection of bone tissue. The disease is most commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus infectious organism, reaching the bone through the bloodstream or extension of a local lesion; Inflammation continues with cancellous ossicle destruction (porous) and bone, loss of blood supply and bone death
Osteosarcoma- The most common bone cancer, which affects mainly the long ossicle, particularly the regions knee, hip or shoulder. The cause of osteosarcoma is unknown, but genetic factors and radiotherapy may be involved in its development. Osteosarcoma occurs more often in males than in females; the most affected people are under 30 years.
Bone disease- Any of the diseases or injuries affecting human bones. Diseases and injuries of the bones are the main causes of abnormalities of the human skeletal system. Although physical injury, causing fracture, dominates disease, fracture is just one of the common causes of bone disease, and the disease is in fact a common cause of fracture.
Metabolic bone disease - Any of various diseases causing various abnormalities or ossicle deformities. Examples of metabolic bone diseases including osteoporosis, rickets, osteomalacia, osteogenesis imperfecta, marble bone disease (osteopetrosis), Paget's disease of bone and fibrous dysplasia. In clinical terms, metabolic bone diseases can cause bone pain and loss of height (due to compression of the vertebrae), and predispose patients to fracture.
Achondroplasia - genetic disorder characterized by an abnormality in the conversion of cartilage into ossicle. Consequently, the bones dependent models of cartilage development, particularly the long bones such as the femur and humerus, cannot grow. Achondroplasia is the most common cause of dwarfism.
Neurofibromatosis- Any two distinct hereditary disorders characterized by skin lesions and benign tumors, which are enlarged progressively nervous system. Neurofibromatosis type 1, also known as von Recklinghausen's disease is much more common of the two disorders and is present in approximately one of every 3,000 live births.
Paget disease of bone- chronic disease of middle age, characterized by excessive breakdown and formation of bone tissue. It is a localized disease that can be unifocal, affecting a single bone, or multifocal, affecting many bones or nearly entire skeleton. For this reason, it is included between metabolic ossicle diseases.
Osteomalacia- Condition in which the ossicle of an adult gradually soften due to inadequate bone mineralization. (In children, the condition is called rickets.) Osteomalacia may occur after several pregnancies or old age, resulting in increased susceptibility to fractures. Symptoms include ossicle pain, weakness, numbness of the limbs.
Bone cancer- Disease characterized by the uncontrolled growth of ossicle cells. The primary bone cancer, that is, cancer that arises in the bone directly, is relatively rare. In the United States, for example, only about 2,400 new cases of primary bone cancer are diagnosed each year.
Ewing tumor of bone- This type of bone cancer most commonly appears on the shafts of long bones such as the femur, tibia or humerus, or ribs or flat ossicle. The pelvis, scapula or skull. Related tumors may also develop in soft tissues.
Marble bone disease- Rare disorder in which the bones become extremely dense, hard and brittle. The disease progresses as bone growth continues; Ossiclee cavities are filled with compact bone. Because increased crowds marrow bone mass, resulting in a reduced amount of bone and therefore a reduced capacity to produce red blood cells, severe anemia results capacity.
Osteochondroma - Solitary benign tumor that consists of cartilage and ossicle portion. Osteochondroma are common and can spontaneously develop after a trauma or may have a hereditary basis. No treatment is required unless the tumor interferes with the function, in which case it must be surgically removed.
Osteochondrosis- Temporary orthopedic relatively common disorder in which children epiphysis (end growth) of a bone dies and then gradually replaced over a period of years. The immediate cause of bone death is the loss of blood supply, but the cause of the latter is unclear. The most common form, the flat coxa, or Legg-Calv�-Perthes disease affects the hip.
Fibrous dysplasia- Rare congenital disorder of development that begins in childhood and is characterized by the substitution of solid calcified bone with fibrous tissue, often only on one side of the body and especially in the long ossicle and the pelvis. The disease appears to result from a genetic mutation that leads to overproduction of fibrous tissue.
Cleidocranial dysostosis- congenital disorder, characterized by rare inherited clavicles that are absent or reduced in size, cranial abnormalities and abnormal dentition. The shoulders can sometimes play in front of the chest, and certain facial bones are underdeveloped or missing.
Osteoma- Small, often solitary bone tumor mainly found in the ossicle of the skull. Osteomas generally appear in late childhood or young adulthood; They are often asymptomatic. not become malignant, and treatment (excision) is necessary only if the tumor interferes with normal operation.
Osteoclastoma- Bone is predominantly at the end of long ossicle in the knee region, but also occur in the wrist, arm and pelvis. Large multinucleated cells (giant cells) found in these tumors resemble osteoclasts, so the name of the tumor. Usually seen in adult women between the ages of 20 and 40, this relatively rare, painful tumor is potentially malignant.
Bone cyst - Benigno saclike and that is usually filled with fluid. The unicameral ossicle cyst affect the long bones, particularly the humerus and femur, or heel bones in children and adolescents and is often detected as a result of a fracture. Treatment involves removal of the cyst and a bone graft, but spontaneous healing is common.
Melorheostosis- rare disorder of unknown cause in which cortical bone growth occurs along the main axis of a bone so that resemble drops of candles. Pain is the main symptom, and stiffness and deformity may result. Usually, only one limb and hip or shoulder are affected.
Callus osteology- In osteology, cartilaginous bone material and forming a bridge connecting through a ossicle fracture during repair. Within one to two weeks after injury, a provisional callus forms, wrapping the fracture site. Osteoblasts, bone-forming cells in the periosteum (the layer where new bone bone occurs) proliferate rapidly.
Caffey syndrome- An inherited disease of children, characterized by swelling of the periosteum (bone layer where new ossicle is produced) and the ossicle cortex of the arms, shoulder girdle and lower jaw. The disease is accompanied by fever and irritability; After a series of periodic exacerbations, it disappears spontaneously.
Mandibulofacial dysostosis- A rare genetic disorder, inherited as an autosomal dominant trait and characterized by some or all of the following: underdeveloped cheek ossicle and jaw, widely spaced eyes, malformation of the lower eyelid and lack of eyelashes, malformation of the atrium ear, absence of an external ear canal resulting conductive deafness.
Fracture dislocation- A serious injury fracture and dislocation simultaneously occur. Often, a loose piece of bone remains jammed between the ends of bones and dislocated may have to be surgically removed before displacement can be reduced.

(Natural Therapy For Pancreas Diseases
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Peter_Melamed_Ph.D./291031]Peter Melamed Ph.D.)
The pancreas is an elongated and tapered gland that is located at the back of the abdominal cavity behind the stomach in the loop of the duodenum, where the small intestine begins. The pancreas has several jobs to do in the body. Two of these important tasks are: One, it secretes digestive enzymes into the duodenum that helps break down food into particles that the body can absorb. Two, it releases hormones, such as insulin, into the bloodstream.
A brief anatomy course on the pancreas can be helpful. The pancreas has cells that release digestive enzymes. These enzymes flow into a series of ducts. One particular duct is called the pancreatic duct. This duct has an important function--it connects with the common bile duct at the ampulla of Vater. The Sphincter of Oddi is the muscle valve between the ampulla of Vater and the duodenum, where the small intestine begins. The Sphincter of Oddi has a binary purpose. One, it regulates the flow of bile and pancreatic juice through the ampulla of Vater into the duodenum. Two, it prevents the entry of duodenal content back into the ampulla of Vater.
Every part of the anatomy noted above has a particular function or functions. The Sphincter of Oddi controls the movement of bile and pancreatic juice towards the small intestine that helps the body digest food. But it also acts like a door and shuts itself so that no toxins from the duodenum can re-enter the pancreas and go back upstream, so to speak.
The pancreas also works with sodium bicarbonate. You guessed it. It also has a binary function. One, the pancreas secretes large amounts of sodium bicarbonate, which protects the duodenum by neutralizing the acid that comes from the stomach. Two, the secreted sodium bicarbonate creates an alkaline environment for the proper function of digestive enzymes and the normal function of the Sphincter of Oddi.
It can easily be deduced that all these parts need to work properly for the pancreas to do its job. If the pancreas is unhealthy, a large number of pancreatic diseases or illnesses can materialize. Key reasons for pancreatic diseases like pancreatitis are the results of having a problematic liver or gallbladder.
Many scientists believe the Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction (SOD) is a result of pancreatic diseases. If the Sphincter of Oddi does not work properly, there can be congestion and inflammation of the pancreatic gland. The Sphincter of Oddi is a valve, allowing bile and pancreatic juices to move onward so that the digestive process can be fully completed. If there are difficulties with the secretion or elimination of bile, the pancreatic duct backs up, like the pipe in your kitchen sink. Pancreatic digestive enzymes, which are now clogged, start to digest their own pancreatic cells. This self-destruction can cause congestion, inflammation, pain, cysts and ultimately, the death of the tissue in the pancreas.
Pancreatitis and SOD are a few of the pancreatic diseases and illnesses that can stem from an unhealthy pancreas. Millions of people suffer from symptoms ranging from mild to acute due to pancreatic illnesses.
In the 1700s in Europe, a gift from Mother Earth was found. Karlovy Vary thermal spring water hails from a town called Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad) in the Czech Republic. This thermal spring water stimulates the stomach and small intestine (duodenum) to release digestive hormones and the correct amount of them. These digestive hormones regulate the entire digestive process, promote secretion and elimination of bile and pancreatic juices, and control the proper function of bile and the pancreatic ducts and valves.
European doctors have been prescribing Karlovy Vary healing mineral water for the treatment of pancreatic, liver and gallbladder diseases for more than 250 years. This mineral healing water is impressive in its ability to multitask. Its benefits are multifold and can help a person heal in several key ways.
Karlovy Vary healing mineral water supplies the pancreas with minerals and bicarbonates, the main ingredients of the pancreatic juices. Healing mineral water created from the genuine Karlovy Vary thermal spring salt may help with two major problems-pancreatic pain and pancreatic insufficiency. When the pancreas has sufficient minerals and bicarbonates, it runs on a full tank. A well-oiled machine has fewer pains and aches than one running on fumes.
Czech scientists also found that this healing mineral water could promote secretion and increase the activity of pancreatic enzymes in healthy volunteers, people with chronic pancreatitis, and patients who had their gallbladders removed. This healing mineral water not only can help someone with an ailing pancreas, but it can also help someone who is healthy and strong. Karlovy Vary healing mineral water can boost anyone's pancreatic overall health, which is great preventive medicine.
This healing mineral water contains almost all minerals and trace elements that are important for the human body. Water created from the genuine Karlovy Vary thermal spring salt heals inflammations and repairs malfunctions of the digestive tract. It promotes energy, immunity and removes harmful toxic substances.
From the hundreds of years of experience using Karlovy Vary mineral water, European doctors noticed that to achieve optimal results, a patient had to drink this water under the supervision of a knowledgeable health practitioner. How much of this mineral water is needed? When should it be consumed, in the morning, in the evening, or both? Not each individual is the same nor has the same symptoms. An experienced health practitioner can advise a patient accordingly.
With that said or in this case written, Karlovy Vary healing mineral water can be used by many in the medical world. Medical doctors, chiropractors, naturopathic physicians, herbalists, acupuncturists, nutritionists, and colon hydrotherapists can add this healing option to their arsenal in fighting pancreatic illnesses and disorders. For the millions suffering from pancreatic ailments, they have an organic, non-drug option available to them.
Pancreatic disorders have proven difficult to treat or cure by conventional medicinal methods. Using a non-drug approach that encourages the pancreas to heal and rebuild itself has demonstrated to be effective. This article focuses on the healing properties of the European Karlovy Vary healing mineral water made from the genuine Karlovy Vary thermal spring salt. Its properties have been tested, studied, and documented by the medical community in Europe. As most of these findings were written in languages other than English, the American public, and its medical professionals remain unaware of this healing option for people suffering from pancreatic disorders.

Peter Melamed, PhD received his medical education first as a registered nurse, then as a medical doctor in Russia. He had specialized training in anesthesiology, intensive care, and internal medicine. Working as a physician, he became interested in holistic healing through his clinical experience with herbs, acupuncture, healing mineral water, and internal cleansing. He was granted a license to practice acupuncture in Russia in 1978, and from that time, he combined conventional Western medical treatment with herbs, acupuncture, and other non-drug healing therapies.
In 1975, Peter Melamed established "Biotherapy" as a natural, holistic approach to healing.
After immigrating to the USA and passing all required medical examinations, Peter Melamed succeeded in starting up a private practice in 1996 at the Biotherapy Alternative Medicine Clinic of San Francisco in the Bay Area.
Peter Melamed is the author of many medical and popular articles along with his eBook: Healthy Pancreas, Healthy You. This book is a revolutionary new guide to healing pancreatic and other digestive disorders without medications and surgery. His article "Chronic Metabolic Acidosis Destroys the Pancreas" was published in the exceptionally prestigious European medical magazine Journal of the Pancreas in 2014.

War On The Mosquito
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Tony_A_Grayson/1798235]Tony A Grayson
News about consequences of contracting the Zika virus has caused panic among people, especially women who are or may become pregnant. The virus is still being studied, and likely we will learn more about its effects, ways in which it is transmitted, and geographic locations in which transmission is active. So far, the virus appears to be mostly a mosquito (vector) transmitted disease. There are many diseases that mosquitoes can transmit with their bites. But, Zika strikes a primal fear in humans because it appears that it may damage our future, the health of the unborn in their mother's womb.
We have a classic case of what is the problem, versus what are the symptoms of a problem. The problem is the Zika virus. Several pharmaceutical companies are trying to develop a vaccine to combat the problem. But, until such a vaccine is created, evaluated, approved, and available in high quantities, we are left mostly with the option of treating the symptom, which is to attempt to prevent the vector from transmitting Zika to humans.
The primary mosquito that can carry the Zika virus is Aedes Aegypti, a mosquito likely to be found around your home and in your city. It tends to bite by day, and generally will stay near to its hatching location, or within 164 yards of it, until it naturally dies within two weeks. A secondary carrier of Zika is the mosquito Aedes Albopictus. That one is more likely to bite other warm-blooded mammals, especially birds, which raises the question of birds carrying Zika over wide ranges of geography. Some bird species range over several continents during their migration cycles.
So, there is a lot of talk about eradicating mosquitoes as a species. The current justification is Zika, but that is only the latest damning evidence against the mosquito, which is the worldwide number one non-human biological danger to human health. In addition to Zika, mosquitoes spread death and misery by transmitting other blood diseases like West Nile Virus, Yellow Fever, Dengue Fever, Malaria, and about a dozen other viruses. World health estimates are that each year, more than 700 million people are infected by one of these viruses and more than one million people die of one of them. The mosquito is strongly suspected to be the primary vector. So, is everybody up for killing all mosquitoes?
Guess what is the primary food source of most insect-eating birds? Yep, it is the mosquito. Spiders, wasps, dragonflies and other insects eat them too and are in turn eaten by birds. Turtles, bats, and fish, all higher in the food chain, eat mosquitoes too. When we spray mosquitoes with airborne pesticides, we want to kill the disease carriers, but we also kill off the balance that nature provides, including mosquitoes in the genus Toxorhynchites, which eats the offending mosquito larvae and adults and does not transmit diseases, plus we kill off other beneficial insects. Whether beneficial or not, poisoned insects are consumed by birds, who either die or pass the effects of poison to their young or anything that eats them. What a mess. What do you think we should do?

Using Stem Cells From Children With Rare Diseases To Find New Treatments
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Richa_Verma/2314151]Richa Verma
Chris Waters is the founder of Rare Science; an organization that has taken up the mission of accelerating cures for kids with rare diseases. She defines her motivation best by saying, "The biggest gap in drug development is that we are not addressing the specific needs of children, especially those with rare diseases. We need to focus on kids. They are our future. If it takes 14 years and US$2 billion to get FDA approval for a new drug, how is that going to help the 35% of the 200 million children across the world that are dying before 5 years of age because they have a rare disease? That's why we created Rare Science. How do we help kids right now, how do we help the families? How do we make change?"
According to Chris, kids with rare diseases can go through a prolonged struggle before being accurately diagnosed. Post diagnosis, most of the time, treatment is not available for the same. "Even though we know that the affected individuals have the gene mutation, we have no idea how the gene causes the observable traits that are widely variable across the individuals we know. We need research tools to help us understand the biology of ADCY5 and other rare disease - it is not enough to just know the gene mutation. We always wanted to do a stem cell line that would help us get at these biological questions,"says Chris.
With limited resources in hand along with a number of intimidating roadblocks, Chris Waters initiated this mission. With every tissue donation, she required consent forms from the children and their parents in question so that the donors were aware of what was involved in giving the samples and how they were going to be used during research. These collected samples - some of them healthy, some suffering from diseases such as autism, Alzheimer's, heart, lung and liver disease and blindness, will be available to researchers globally.
The samples will be turned into pluripotent stem cells that have the ability to be turned into any other type of cell in the body - enabling researchers to investigate and carry our trials on future therapeutic usages through disease progression. With this program, Chris hopes to establish a service model for other rare diseases by creating stem cell lines from them to reduce the gap between discovery, research and clinical impact.

Diabetes - How to Control It
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Andrew_Cavanaugh/411115]Andrew Cavanaugh
The Best Way to Control Diabetes
Diabetes is a dreaded condition full of medical solutions and dire treatments. The finest diabetes cure is prevention; nevertheless, if you are ill with diabetes, there are ways to keep your sugar spikes under control.
In order to prevent diabetes, you must educate yourself first about foods and behaviors that cause diabetes and elevate blood sugar. Remember, excess sugar is the culprit that causes your pancreas to overreact or under react. Low stomach acidity can also flair diabetes.
Nevertheless, with education, you can control your diabetes with a specific diet and exercise tailored for you. Then your pancreas will create insulin to control the amount of sugar in your blood, and the amount of sugar absorbed by your cells. Your cells use sugar to produce energy! If our pancreas does not work properly, sugar builds up in your blood stream and weakens your blood vessels. This results in poor circulation and plaque buildup, which leads to a heart attack or stroke. When your blood vessels weaken, diseases of the eye, heart and kidneys start to surface causing more problems.
People with diabetes eventually suffer with hypertension, atherosclerosis, kidney disease, edema, nerve damage, infections and skin sores. Lack of nourishment causes your cells to wither and die. You must stop eating a high-fat diet loaded with high-calorie snacks and smoke. This behavior causes weight gain and constricts your arteries even more, which leads to death. When foods convert to glucose and are not absorbed properly by your cells, your blood-glucose levels rise dramatically to create a condition known as Syndrome X. You'll require emergency-room care because of an increased heart-attack risk! It is extremely valuable to learn how to control and prevent diabetes!
Remember to Check Your Glucose Level!
A normal measurement of blood-glucose level is 110 milligrams of glucose to one-tenth of a liter of blood. A measurement of 110 to 126 is borderline indicating impaired glucose tolerance. If for three days or longer, your blood-glucose measures over 127, you may have contracted diabetes. You will need to monitor everything you eat and need to exercise to remain healthy. Remember, to exercise and to sweat often! Sweating removes the toxic load endured by your organs.

Types of Diabetes I and II
In Type 1 Diabetes, your pancreas does not produce enough insulin to meet your body's needs. You must inject yourself with insulin daily, or find foods that support your cells without the need for a shot of insulin. Type 1 diabetes normally begins at an early age and is usually caused after a viral infection, where the body's immune system attacks and destroys its insulin-producing cells in your pancreas. If you suffer with diabetes, it is necessary to take special care of your feet, because diabetic nerve damage or diabetic neuropathy can create a lack of feeling and broken skin sores that can't heal.
In Type 2 Diabetes, your pancreas will produce enough insulin, but your body's cells are resistant to its absorption. Your taste buds will perceive less sweetness! When there is too much sugar or glucose in your blood you'll feel fatigued, extremely thirsty, and hungry a lot. You'll also constantly need to urinate and have problems with your vision. When you miss a meal, or over exercise, your blood glucose will spike too low. You'll feel dizzy, sweaty, confused, have palpitations, and feel empty. You'll even have a sensation of tingling or numbness in your extremities or lips.
Eating the following foods on a regular basis can help control, or eliminate and prevent diabetes!
Raw Fruits, Raw Vegetables, Fresh Vegetable Juices, Oat Bran, Rice Bran, Nut Butters, Root Vegetables, Beans, Spirulina, Kefir, Brewer's Yeast, Egg Yolks, Garlic, Kelp, Fish, Skinless White Turkey, White Chicken Breast, Raw Whole Nuts, Maitake Mushrooms, Low-Fat Dairy Products, Whole Grains, Cinnamon, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Dandelion Tea, and High-Fiber Foods go a long way in helping or curing diabetes all together.
Adding extra-virgin coconut oil to your diet can significantly help to reduce your insulin dependence on medications. Coconuts are made up of medium chain fatty acids and do not require an enzymatic breakdown of insulin since it's easily absorbed by your cells and smoothly converted into energy. Coconut oil helps to enhance insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance by slowing down the emptying of the stomach so that sugars released into the blood stream at a slower rate. Adding coconut oil to your meals helps to reduce the glycemic index of foods and helps to control blood sugar. The biochemical makeup of coconut oil enhances the ability of your pancreas to secrete insulin. Coconut oil improves circulation, enhances digestion, stimulates metabolism and regulates blood sugar. Whereas, other fats require insulin to enter your cells and need thoroughly processed through your liver. This causes added stress and slows you down.
Spirulina Stabilizes Blood Sugar
Spirulina is a micro algae made up of concentrated protein that helps to stabilize blood sugar levels and helps protect your immune system. It is easily digestible, supplies essential nutrients and helps to curb your appetite. Cinnamon enhances digestion and helps in the metabolism of fats and sugar. Fiber-rich foods appreciably help to regulate blood sugar by slowing down the conversion of complex carbohydrates or starches into glucose keeping insulin and blood sugar levels under control. http://www.DiabetesHowToControl.com

How to Give Your Child a Good Health Start
By [http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Sarah_Wayne/2361702]Sarah Wayne
Not very long ago, we used to think that the dreaded diseases that struck adults - heart attack, stroke and cancer - where the inevitable fallout of aging. Today we know better. Many of these adult afflictions have their origins in wrong habits and lifestyle practices inculcated in children.
So, if we want our children to grow up into healthy adults, we have to get them off to a good start early in life. The basic maxims are spelled out in the three big E's
Eat Right
Exercise regularly
Eschew unhealthy habits like smoking and drinking in excess.
Heredity places some children at greater risk than others. This is why it's important to alert your pediatrician to your family's medical history. But early testing and monitoring, combined with proper preventive measures, can help keep even at-risk children from falling victim to chronic diseases later in life. Here it is, then: your child's prescription for a healthy life.
Obesity:
If your child is over weight, he runs a much greater risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and a host of other ills. But the consequences of obesity aren't just physical. Overweight children risk rejection by peer and, at times, by teachers and other authority figures. They may be viewed as weak and lacking in self control and, in part because of their social problems, may not achieve their full potential in school. Furthermore, because and overweight child is less likely to participate in games and sports, he may fill be hind his peers in the development of motor skills, which in turn, perpetuates the cycle of obesity.
Although there's definitely a hereditary component to obesity (if you and your family are over weight, your child is more likely to follow suite than if you don't have that history), the fact remains that obesity is moms caused by overeating and lack of activity. These are two aspects of your child's behavior you can do something about to help him lose weight now and to thwart the possibility of his having to be on and off diets for the rest of his live.
Recommendations: If you think your child is overweight, discuss the problem with the pediatrician. Never put a very young child on diet yourself, you may harm his growth by excluding necessary foods. There's a small chance that a chemical imbalance or other physical condition may be at fault.
If, as it more likely, the problem is a result of overeating, have your pediatrician recommend an eating plan. Then take steps to normalize your child's eating habits, which may mean making changes i9n the whole family's eating patterns. Don't nag your child about weight problem or make him feel as if he is being punished for being overweight. Here are some positive steps to take:
Become aware of what and when your child eats. If he's snacking on too much high calorie, high fat foods, keep a variety of more nutritious snacks on hand. If he tends to eat junk food while watching television, limit TV watching time and suggest that he play outdoors.
Try to determine whether there are underlying psychological reasons for your child's overeating (consulting with a professional may help). Is your child using food comfort? Does he eat when he's anxious or upset? You may have to help ways to express his needs and feelings.
Prepare meals that aren't heavy on fried foods, swimming in cream souses or topped by rich desserts.
High Blood Pressure
People with high blood pressure are more likely to develop diseases of the heart and blood vessels and high blood pressure is a leading cause of death. Although there is genetic factor involved - high blood pressure tend to run in families - stress and obesity are two other risk factors that you can control to reduce your child's chances of developing this serious condition.
Your pediatrician should regularly check your child's blood pressure starting at age four (younger, if there is a family history of high blood pressure). If your child does have high blood pressure, your doctor will probably take blood and urine samples to determine whether there's a specific medical cause such as kidney problem. If there's no apparent medical reason, he or she may suggest changes similar to those proposed for adults (diet, exercise, stress reduction)
Recommendations: Although some experts believe there is "no conclusive evidence" that high sodium in take causes high blood pressure, there is enough information suggesting a relationship between salt consumption and high blood pressure in adults to warrant prudence and moderation in childhood. It's also important to realize that many adults, having acquired a taste for salty food early in life, suffer from bloating, water retention and weight gain. Salt intake for youngsters should be limited to no more than 5 grams daily (about 2� teaspoons). Here are ways to cut back.
Cook without salt and don't bring the salt shaker to the dinner table.
Season your food with other spices such as curry powder, garlic and onion.
Read package labels and serve fewer salty foods and snacks.
When eating out avoid dishes that feature high sodium flavor enhancers, such as soy sauce and monosodium glutamate (ajinomoto - a staple in Chinese cooking)
Heart Disease:
What your child eats today may come back to help or haunt him in adulthood. A diet high in cholesterol and saturated fat may make him susceptible to heart disease and stroke later in life.
The body needs a certain amount of cholesterol for cell production, but the amount manufactured by the liver is usually sufficient. Excess cholesterol from food, along with saturated fat, builds up in the arteries to form plaques. These plaques clog the blood vessels making it difficult for oxygen rich blood to reach vital organs.
There's no question that atherosclerotic plaques start building in early childhood. To help prevent this buildup, you can make dietary changes that will help your child - and other family members - stay healthier now, while setting the stage for healthful eating in adulthood.
Recommendations: Many foods high in cholesterol are also good sources of protein and other nutrients that are important during your child's growing years, so you won't want to cut them out completely. Moreover, children - especially those under two years old - need some fat in order to grow. How can you safely keep your child's cholesterol level in check? Here are some guidelines:
Be sure that foods containing complex carbohydrates - grains, cereals, fresh fruits and vegetables - make up approximately 50 percent of your child's diet.
Keep fat consumption down to about 30 percent of his diet, with no more tan 10 percent in the form of saturated fats.
He should get no more than 300 milligrams of cholesterols from the foods he eats (all foods from animals contain some cholesterol). Some vegetable oils like palm and coconut oil have a high content of saturated fats which are converted in the body to cholesterol.
Be sure your child exercises regularly. And try to match his calorie in take with his calorie expenditure so he doesn't become over weight.
If your child is more than two years of age and you have a family history of high cholesterol and/or a history or premature heart attack, you should have your child cholesterol level tested. Children whose cholesterol count consistently exceeds 176 mg/dl require nutritional counseling plus dietary changes.
Constipation
Constipation is a common problem in childhood. Some experts believe chronic constipation can lead to hemorrhoids and intestinal disorders such as diverticulitis, in adulthood.
The immediate problem can be relieved by adding fiber to the diet (more fresh fruits and vegetables and grains). Avoid castor oil and other purgatives as routine rituals for children. They can affect bowel tone, and lead to life long constipation. If these measures are not successful, consult your pediatrician, who may prescribe a mild laxative. However many children have problems for as much as several months after a bout of constipation, because of the fear and pain they experienced. Talking to your child will reassure him that he can attain regularity. Continue the regimen of fiber containing foods to avoid the risk of recurring constipation. Make sure your child gets enough opportunity for play your child gets enough opportunity for playful activity. In activity promotes constipation.
Cancer
Many people believe cancer is like going bald - there's not much you can do about it. But that belief is wrong. Though there is a tendency to inherit some forms of cancer, many are caused by the way we live: smoking (or exposure to second hand smoke), the time we spend I the sun and the food we eat. It's never too early to instill the right cancer preventing life styles habits in your children.
Recommendations: It's now clear that exposing your child to secondhand smoke is dangerous; secondhand smoke actually contains more of some cancer causing chemicals than smoke that's inhaled directly, moreover, children whose parents smoke are hospitalized more frequently during their first year of life for bronchitis and pneumonia than children of non smoker. Quit smoking and guard your children from exposure to secondhand smoke from others.
A recent report from the National Research Council in the U.S. supports the theory that "what we eat during our lifetime strongly influences the possibility of developing certain types of cancer." According to the American Cancer Society, diets low in fat, high in fiber, with plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and cereal may reduce the chances of developing several forms of cancer. Here are ways to improve your child's diet:
Reduce the amount of fat in your family diet to lower the risk of developing breast thyroid and prostate cancer. A low fat diet also combats obesity and helps prevent heart disease and stroke.
Serve your family lots of green and yellow vegetables, which contain substances called carotenoids, to lower the risk of developing lung cancer.
Serve a minimum of five half cup serving of fresh vegetables and citrus fruits daily; the Vitamin A and C, selenium and fiber they contain can help prevent all types of cancers, especially colon and rectal.
Be sure your child eats plenty of complex carbohydrates whole grains, beans and dried peas, fruits and vegetables. The fiber in them moves potentially harmful substances through the intestine quickly so they spend less time in the body.
Cavities
Few of us escaped childhood without at least one cavity; most of us had many more. But with fluoride-based toothpastes today, plus major advances in dentistry, your kids have a good chance of staying cavity-free.
Avoid giving your child too many sticky foods like sweets, jams, cakes and toffees and make twice daily brushing a life habit. In addition, make sure your child has regular dental checkups, starting at year old.
Weak Bones
Osteoporosis is a condition in which decreased bone mass leads to increased susceptibility to hip and wrist factures, poor posture and loss of height (because the vertebrae in the spine are weak). Although osteoporosis occurs mainly in women after age 45, there's evidence that good diet and exercise habits, practiced from young age, may prevent the condition from developing in adulthood.
Good strong bones early in life set the foundation for later years. Children need to exercise and get the right nutrients for strong bones, rather than waiting until bones start weakening in adulthood.
Recommendations: Be sure your child gets plenty of calcium. Recent research from the U.S. Confirms that bone mineral health is better in children who consume 1000 milligram of calcium - the amount found in approximately three glasses of milk - than in those who get less calcium. Good sources include low-fat or skim milk (after age two), yogurt, cheeses (preferably from skim milk), fish with bones, pudding and custards. Do not give your child calcium tablets.
The same research also revels that physical activity affects bone health in children (and at any age). Regular weight bearing exercise - walking, skipping, doing cart wheel and running, for example - can help your child build strong bones and stay in shape.
Stress
Emotional stress can have a powerful effect on your child's wellbeing, just as it does for adults. School phobia, peer pressure and family problems such as divorce are just a few of the factors that can cause your child to experience stress. How he copes with his feelings now can set the pattern for a lifetime.
By helping your child learn to reduce his anxiety level, you will be teaching him how to combat many of the potentially harmful effects of stress - high blood pressure, headache, backache later in life.
Personality traits that make adults susceptible to heart disease appear in children as young as nursery school age, say experts. These traits may include a low capacity for tolerating stress and frustration, a tendency to create internal anxiety (for example, excessive worry about performance in school) and an overblown sense of responsibility (a child who is too quick to take on family responsibilities such as caring for sibling or doing household chores).
But it's important to distinguish between these traits and the kind of hard-driving behavior that comes from high motivation and joyful involvement in activities. How can you tell the difference? One key is whether your child feels compelled to work most of the time or whether he is willing to "hang out" and relax. Children must have some sense of childhood. This means creating a balance between work and play. Your child should also be flexible enough to "shift gears" from play time on weekends to school work on Monday morning. Too much rigidity - extreme fearfulness every Sunday night, for instance, may be a sigh that your child needs help.
Recommendations: Your child's natural temperament to some extent determines how rigid or flexible he is, whether he's persistent, stubborn, striving or easygoing. And though you can't change every aspect of his behavior you can work with your child to help him allay anxiety and have more fun. Here are some suggestions:
Encourage your child to express his fears, no matter how silly they may seem to him, rather than allowing them to churn him up inside.
If he's anxious about doing well in school, review the difficult skills or lessons with him in "practice sessions", keeping the tone light.
Encourage your child to play with friends, read and engage in other activities that provide pleasure for their down sake.
Don't turn piano lessons, dancing classes and the like into chores by insisting on heavy practice and achievement.
Set a good example by making play and relaxation a priority in your life. Let your child knows you value this time as much as time spent working.
I wish and pray for a Healthy Life for EVERYONE!
